Mr Clean Auto dry discontinued? I cant find any auto dry refill filters anywhere except for ebay. Checked two autozones, orielly, advanced and walmart, all of which used to carry them with no luck.
What do you guys use to dry your car without getting spots? Im going to try one of those california water blades.

how much are they running on ebay? i never use my mr clean for the correct reason, i just use it to put soap on the car. because i needed to buy the refill soap and filter, and i never get around to it. good to know they're discontinue before i actually went out looking.
i'm still mad i bought that damn california thing. it was pretty much a waste of time, its only good on large surfaces: hood (if its a flat hood), t-tops/roof, soiler, windows. and it sucks trying to use it pretty much everywhere else. and it makes a lot of noise when you use it.
i like using a chamois more than anything. i just use a leaf blower than the chamois.

i went to k mart and found 6 filters in the clearence section 3.50 each so i picked them up and they had the whole thing at walmart in the clearance isle for 8 bucks so i bought it too, that should get me through the year and ou can buy casses of them on ebay, but i will eventually switch to a external hose filter griotsgarage has one but it is kinda of expensive (thats all the mrclean thing is good for is filtering hte water so you dont have to hand dry)
so go check out the clearance section. then again you could always just contact mr clean and see if they have any left. isnt mr clean a johnson and johnson brand??

You could always dry your car with water

After some Zaino, of course.

Yeah, but just make sure you clean your entire house, spill a few bottles of juice on the ground first, clean it up, then dry your car with it.. You know? Like how they do in the commercials!?!?!
LMAO!
Use a microfiber towel. Soft, quick, and easy.

just use a bottle of distilled water and pour it all over the car when you are done rinsing off the soap. water spots are just the left over minerals that don't evaporate into the air. distilled water is 99.9% pure water so it doesn't leave minerals on your car.
this is a trick i've been using for years and years don't tell anyone

I use a water filter and the Mr. Clean auto dry refill soap in a bucket and used a sponge. that little squirt gun they give you with it is equivalent to pissing on your car there is no pressure lol. and to dry it an "Absorber!"
